Best Bets for Mom

Posted May 10, 2019byMelissa

Mother’s Day is Sunday. We know, we know… you didn’t forget. This is just a friendly reminder. And what kind of friends would we be if we didn’t also remind you of some great gift ideas to celebrate the mom in your life who runs— and probably just plain runs things, too. Here are our best bets for mom, with plenty of time to spare!

Register for the King Tiger 5K

The King Tiger 5K is one of THE most family-friendly running events in town. This race also has 4-person teams in addition to the traditional individual race result, so anyone can participate with ease. It also has one of the biggest kids fun runs of the year in the 1K Tiger Trot. And if that’s not enough, there’s RITA’s Italian Ice for every finisher, too. Proceeds benefit the Miracle League, helping fund baseball for kids with disabilities. And if you’re looking for a great value, you’ve found it.

Sweet Relief from Run For Your Life and Trigger Point

Did you know? National Foam Rolling Day is here! (No seriously, we can’t make up this stuff.) Celebrate with some savings on Trigger Point products, like foam rollers, all weekend long. Moms know from aches and pains; they have kids. Why not give them a break from all that? Ask our team about foam rollers and other recovery products, and get 25% OFF Trigger Point now through May 13.

The next generation of bone-conduction technology is what’s inside the lightest and most organically designed open ear headphones to date.

Treat Mom to some new socks, show her you care, and that you learned a thing or two from her about how to handle your dough.
